Neymar to see out Santos contract

Neymar will see out his contract with Santos, which expires in 2014, according to the player’s father.

The Brazilian starlet has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona with many reports indicating that a fee is already agreed between the clubs.

“Our position is to stay until the end of contract,” Neymar Sr. told Radio Bandeirantes. “And we have not heard that Santos are in negotiations to sell Neymar.

“If Santos want then I will talk with my son to see if he really wants to go. We made some plans for Neymar to stay here until 2014. If these change we must be told beforehand.

“Barcelona are waiting for Neymar but for 2014. A project is in place to see how he will fit there. They put people next to Neymar to see how he would work. And Real Madrid do the same thing in the same way.”
